New Medical-Led Aesthetics Clinic Opens in Hitchin, Bringing Surgical Expertise and Natural Results to Hertfordshire
By james 21st Jul 2026
A new chapter in medical aesthetics has arrived in Hertfordshire with the launch of Akselberg Clinic, a doctor-led aesthetics and skin health clinic founded by NHS surgeon and aesthetic medicine specialist Dr Victoria Russell-Akselberg.
Located in Hitchin Town Centre, Akselberg Clinic offers advanced aesthetic and regenerative treatments in a calm, clinical environment, combining surgical precision with a personalised approach focused on enhancing natural beauty rather than changing it. The clinic provides treatments including anti-wrinkle injections, dermal fillers, skin boosters, polynucleotides, chemical peels and regenerative skin therapies, alongside bespoke treatment plans designed to improve long-term skin health.
Dr Russell-Akselberg brings an exceptional level of medical expertise to the clinic, having trained and worked as an NHS surgeon in London across Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, General Surgery and Breast Oncoplastic Surgery. Her detailed understanding of facial anatomy underpins every treatment, ensuring patient safety remains at the heart of her practice.
Alongside her clinical work, Dr Russell-Akselberg is a trainer at Harley Academy in London, where she teaches medical aesthetics to healthcare professionals, helping to raise standards across the industry.
Her academic credentials include a First-Class degree in Biomedical Science, medical training at St George's, University of London, and a Master's in Surgical Innovation from Imperial College London. She is also a Member of the Royal College of Surgeons (MRCS).
Unlike trend-led aesthetic practices, Akselberg Clinic focuses on subtle, evidence-based treatments that restore confidence while preserving individuality.
Dr Victoria Russell-Akselberg, Founder of Akselberg Clinic, commented, "My philosophy has always been that aesthetic medicine should enhance rather than alter. Every face tells a story, and my role is to help patients look refreshed, healthy and confident while remaining completely themselves. By combining my surgical background with the latest advances in regenerative aesthetics, I've created a clinic where safety, education and truly personalised care come first."
The launch comes as demand continues to grow for medically qualified aesthetic practitioners, with patients increasingly seeking treatments delivered by clinicians with advanced anatomical knowledge and surgical experience.
Akselberg Clinic's approach centres on comprehensive consultations, individual treatment planning and achieving refined, natural-looking results that age well over time rather than following short-lived aesthetic trends.
Based in the heart of Hitchin, the clinic welcomes patients from across Hertfordshire and the surrounding counties looking for expert-led aesthetic treatments in a discreet and professional setting.
